Learning &
Leading
with Technology
October 1997
This month’s issue includes articles on integrating
technology
into the curriculum and managing its use by students,
having your
students plan a mission to Mars, using technology to
explore old
problems and ask new questions in math class, using CD-ROM
storybooks
in the one-computer classroom, and creating nonexamples in
Photoshop
to teach curriculum content.

Task
Computing
by Bob Hodges
Even teachers with just one or two computers in their
classrooms can
set aside time for every student to use the computer to
complete a real-world
problem or task. Use the model outlined in this article to
design a
list of tasks for your students that not only meets your
educational
goals but also challenges your students to take full advantage
of the
technology available.
Mining the Internet
Online
by Glen Bull, Gina Bull, & Judi
Harris
Mining the Internet is an ongoing column in L&L.
Frequently
the Internet changes substantially in the six months between
the time
that a column is submitted and the time it appears in print.
The Mining
the Internet Web site will provide a location for updates to
each issue’s
column. It will also provide a way to offer active links to
Internet
locations mentioned in the column and a place for material
that would
not fit in the confines of a four-page column. The column will
therefore
become a hybrid mix of print materials that will appear in
each issue
of L&L and supplementary materials that will be
placed on
the Web each month.
